Abstract

It is argued that transverse-momentum–dependent (TMD) gluonic parton distributions can be relevant for physics probed in proton collisions at high energies. The production of two real photons in proton collisions is discussed within the framework of TMD factorization at small transverse pair momenta where information on gluon TMDs can be extracted. Spin-dependent gluon TMDs can be studied in polarized proton collisions at RHIC. On the other hand, the effect of the distribution of linearly polarized gluons on unpolarized proton collisions at the LHC may be utilized to determine the parity of the Higgs boson.
